Renegade Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis dead at 82
Al Davis was a rebel with a cause — "Just win, baby" he exhorted his beloved Oakland Raiders. And as the NFL well knows, he was also a rebel with a subpoena. Davis, who bucked league authority time and again and won three Super Bowl titles during his half-century in professional football, died Saturday. He was 82.
